My Kingdom

Quent Cordair's MY KINGDOM is a select collection of poems, short stories, flash-fiction works, studies and musings from the author's notebooks, short plays for stage and screen, special scenes from the IDOLATRY series, and for the first time in print, the acclaimed short story "The Match," together with the short screenplays "Mujahid" and "At Home with Heather James."

For me, an artist’s studio can be as fascinating a place to visit as the gallery or museum in which his finished work is displayed. Practice sketches, studies, exercises, works in progress, casual pieces created solely for the artist’s own pleasure—while perhaps never intended for sale or public exposure—can be as wondrous and interesting as finished works that have earned the artist’s signature. Over the years, I’ve been encouraged by fans to publish the writer’s equivalent of such studio work—written sketches, descriptions, dialogues, style and period exercises, scene and character studies, musings, selections from works in progress. This collection includes, in addition to an assortment of such, a variety of shorter, finished works, from poems to plays, dating to before publication of the LUNCH BREAK collection. To one and all, welcome again to my world, my way. Welcome to MY KINGDOM. ~ Quent Cordair

Available in paperback and for Kindle

I could not put the book down! I read the poems out loud to my kids as though I am Cyrano on stage! Inspires me to be the best I can be! Love it!
